workout songs

Ok....so I pretty much lost all the music I used to have on my ipod and got a new computer too so I'm starting over. I've compiled a small list of songs just going off the top of my head but tell me some of yours so I can have a bigger playlist. Thanks!!

Re: workout songs
OK....I know that everyone has very different musical tastes...but I worked a long time on the ultimate running mix and I'm very proud. Ranges from cheezy but effective (read: Justine Timberlake) to alt/electronica (United States of Electronica) to raunchy rap. Not for children but great for pace setting and motivating. At least to me "Hollaback girl" has save my rear on several occasions already!

Here goes:

I Like to Move It (Jens O. Radio Edit) - Bang Gang
Grade 9 - Bare Naked Ladies
So What'cha Want - Beastie Boys
Sabotage -Beastie Boys
Pump It - Black Eyed Peas
Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo -Bloodhound Gang
The Distance - Cake
Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Daft Punk
A LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION - Elvis vs Jxl
Lose Yourself - Eminem
Rabbit Run - Eminem
Take Me Out -Franz Ferdinand
We've Got the Beat - GoGo's
Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani
Now That We Found Love - Heavy D & The Boyz & Aaron Hall
SexyBack - Justin Timberlake
Everythings Just Wonderful - Lily Allen
Pull Up the People -M.I.A.
Hombre - M.I.A.
Hey Ya! - OutKast
Get the Party Started - P!nk
Seven - Prince
Ana Ng - They Might Be Giants
Don't Let's Start - They Might Be Giants
It Is On! - United State Of Electronica
Emerald City - United State Of Electronica
Seven Nation Army 3:51 Elephant The White Stripes

Happy Running!!!

Try Kid Rock's Bawitaba. Awesome if you're looking for up-tempo, intense music.

Re: workout songs
I really like "Over you" by Chris Daughtry...
specifically there's a line,
"I shoulda started running a long long time ago"
(not referring to running literally but I decided to take it that way)
